The Possessive Criminal { On Hold }

VII. Lights Out

Louise's Pov :

My eyes fluttered open as I slowly sat up. I gaze around the unfamiliar room. But then, again..Why does it give me the feeling that I was here before?

Then, flashbacks about yesterday played. Kidnapped by some criminal or mob boss and dad completely giving me up to him.

I felt a stray tear going down my face. I wiped it, mentally scolding myself to not cry again.

But then, I realized I was no longer sleeping inside the cabinet. I was in a soft king sized bed with his scent all over it. To be honest, even though I hate him, his smell makes me kind of relieved and safe. It has that strong yet embracing scent of mint and almonds.

What am I saying? This is no time for me to cry. I need to get out of this place and away from the one who kidnapped me here. I also need to find my dad and agree about him hiding me away from him.

The door knob suddenly twisted, startling me. It must be him. I'm sure it's him. If not, Who wouldn't it be?

My eyes caught something when I saw an empty vase. Maybe I can use this to bash it in his head and use the sharp ends to point it at the guards and intimidate them.

With that, I took the vase in my hand and walk towards the door. I was ready to carry out my plan but I didn't when the door opened and the person came into view.

" Dad?, " I said surprised and unsure if this is just a dream. But he was there, smiling at me lovingly.

" Wha- whe- How did you get in here? How did you get past- "

He shook his head and cutted me, " No time to explain. Come. Let's go somewhere out of this place. "

Did I hear that, right? My father is going to bust me out of this place? He was just faking everything all along just to make him think that he already has me and my father will secretly sneak me out?

I nodded as He smiled and grabbed my hand like a caring father would have done to his young daughter.

As we went done the stairs, It was unusual that there are no guards or anything inside the mansion, considering the fact that my dad found me and knows exactly which corner to turn to.

' Maybe He practically searched for me throughout the mansion?... '

I was really confused but that doesn't matter. As long as my dad was here to take me away and make forget this ever happened, I would be happy.

We went out of the mansion and saw dad's car infront. I went to open the front seat and went inside as my father did on the other side in the driver's seat.

I looked at him and smiled as he smiled at me back. He started the engine and started to drive off back to home.

~~~~

But I was wrong. We didn't drive back to the house but in a restaurant that we used to go to meet up before. I was really confused. I thought we were going home.

Dad stared at me with a smile and said,

" I thought you and I would have some breakfast together. I'll order your favorite breakfast meal as always or you can have whatever you like, princess. "

I just nodded as I followed him inside. I took a seat in table for two as I watches him order our meals. Lots of things are running in my mind and so are the questions. But I decided not to ruin our breakfast together.

After a few minutes, Dad came back with our meals. I smiled as he put mine down first before his. He sat down and smiled at me. I smiled back and stared at my food.
